The exterior styling was courtesy of Eugene ‘Bob' Gregory. He was hired by Edsel Ford in 1931 and soon was head of Ford's new design department in 1935. He became responsible for ever Ford, Mercury and Lincoln Zephyr design produced up to 1945.
This Convertible Sedan was one of six bodystyles available on the Model 91A for 1939. It had the fewest numbers produced and came lavishly equipped with items such as Lockheed hydraulic brakes.
This car has been treated to a restoration since new. In 2007 it was brought to Carmel, California where it was offered for sale at Bonhams auction, An Important Sale of Collectors' Motorcars and Automobilia. The lot was estimated to sell for $65,000 - $75,000 but failed to find an interested buyer willing to satisfy the vehicles reserve.

This Woody is equipped with fog lights, side mirrors, banjo steering wheel, radio, clock, spare, wood grain dash, trim rings, wide whitewall tires, and a 12-volt conversion for easier driving.
The Ford DeLuxe was produced from 1937 through 1940. The styling was influenced by Edsel Ford and borrowed many cues from the Lincoln Zephyr. One of the more noticeable Zephyr influences was the oval headlights that were incorporated into the front fenders. Other front-end features were V-shaped grille and vertical bars. The 221 cubic-inch eight-cylinder engine was carefully hidden under the sweeping bonnet. The 85 horsepower that was produced was sent to the rear wheels through a three-speed manual transmission. The four-wheel hydraulic brakes brought the vehicle to a stop.
